Hereditary alpha-tryptasemia: a commonly inherited modifier of anaphylaxis
Abstract
Purpose of review Hereditary alpha-tryptasemia (HαT) is an autosomal dominant genetic trait and a common cause of elevated basal serum tryptase in Western populations. It is a risk factor for severe anaphylaxis among individuals with venom allergy and an established modifier of anaphylaxis and mast cell mediator-associated symptoms among patients with systemic mastocytosis. Understanding the physiology of tryptases and how this may relate to the clinical features associated with HαT is the first step in identifying optimal medical management and targets for novel therapeutics.Recent findings HαT prevalence is increased in both clonal and non-clonal mast cell-associated disorders where it augments symptoms of immediate hypersensitivity, including anaphylaxis. The unique properties of naturally occurring α/β-tryptase heterotetramers may explain certain elements of phenotypes associated with HαT, though additional mechanisms are being evaluated. This review provides an overview of the clinical and translational studies that have identified HαT as a modifier of mast cell-associated disorders and anaphylaxis and discusses mechanisms that may potentially explain some of these clinical findings.

The number of TPSAB1 copies determines an increase in α-tryptase levels, leading to elevated BST, with each additional copy adding approximately 9-10 ng/ml to basal BST levels.
“Further studies have elucidated as the number of TPSAB1 copies determined an increase in α-tryptase levels, on turn ultimately leading to elevated BST, each additional copy number adding approximately 9–10 ng/ml to the basal BST levels (12, 13).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
